TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - Deep graph neural network-based prediction of acute suicidal ideation in young adults JO - Scientific reports A1 - Choi, Kyu Sung A1 - Kim, Sunghwan A1 - Kim, Byung-Hoon A1 - Jeon, Hong Jin A1 - Kim, Jong-Hoon A1 - Jang, Joon Hwan A1 - Jeong, Bumseok SP - 15828 EP - 15828 VL - 11 IS - 1 N2 - Precise remote evaluation of both suicide risk and psychiatric disorders is critical for suicide prevention as well as for psychiatric well-being. Using questionnaires is an alternative to labor-intensive diagnostic interviews in a large general population, but previous models for predicting suicide attempts suffered from low sensitivity. We developed and validated a deep graph neural network model that increased the prediction sensitivity of suicide risk in young adults (n = 17,482 for training; n = 14,238 for testing) using multi-dimensional questionnaires and suicidal ideation within 2 weeks as the prediction target. The best model achieved a sensitivity of 76.3%, specificity of 83.4%, and an area under curve of 0.878 (95% confidence interval, 0.855-0.899). We demonstrated that multi-dimensional deep features covering depression, anxiety, resilience, self-esteem, and clinico-demographic information contribute to the prediction of suicidal ideation. Our model might be useful for the remote evaluation of suicide risk in the general population of young adults for specific situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
